Roads to Avoid in Cambridgeshire

Traffic congestion in some of Cambridgeshire’s main roads is either caused by narrow lanes or closed lanes, as well as ongoing roadworks and road improvements.

In particular, A47 Soke Parkway in Peterborough and A11 in Six Mile Bottom have closed one lane due to some roadworks. These lanes won’t be open again until September and June of 2010, respectively. Heavy traffic is also constantly experienced along the main roads of Cambridge, Trumpington, Huntingdon, and Snailwell.

Meanwhile, Whitepost Road in Newborough, Nene Parade in Wisbech, Short Road in Snailwell, and B1081 St. Johns Street in Stamford have been temporarily closed due to some roadworks as well.

Motorway Cameras in Cambridgeshire

One of the traffic monitoring measures that the local government of Cambridgeshire has done is to install cameras across the county. A motorway camera has been placed to monitor vehicles along M11 road in Duxford. There are also cameras installed along the main roads of Cambridgeshire towns such as Cambridge, Barton, Elton Hall, Little Port, Peterborough, and Willingham.
